ENGINE MAINTENANCE

Engine maintenance is vital to keep your vehicle operating at peak performance. It also impacts the longevity of your Volvo's engine. Trust the experts at Hailey Import Service to help you protect your investment. Call us or visit our shop in Greensboro 27408.

These are some of the engine maintenance services we offer.

Fuel InjectionFuel injection is a system for admitting fuel into an engine. Since 1990, fuel injectors have completely replaced carburetors as the primary means of getting gasoline into the engine. A fuel injector atomizes the fuel by forcibly pumping it through a small nozzle (under high pressure). Failure of the fuel injection system means poor performance and ultimately destroys the engine. Make sure your vehicle's fuel injection system is maintained properly. For all your fuel injection maintenance and replacement needs, call 336-286-1024 or visit Hailey Import Service today.

IgnitionAn ignition system is a system for igniting (using an electric spark) a mixture of fuel and air in a gasoline engine. A properly working ignition system means a properly starting engine and high performance from your car. For all your ignition system maintenance and replacement needs, call or visit Hailey Import Service today.

Ignition Wires & CablesIgnition cables also known as spark plug wires are an important part of your car's ignition system. They transfer the spark from the ignition coil to spark plugs that ignite the mixture of fuel and air. The mixture starts the engine. Over time, ignition wires and cables get weak and break down. This makes it impossible for the spark to reach the engine cylinders. This results in the engine misfiring. The car will eventually fail to start. If it does start, it will run poorly. Common symptoms of faulty ignition cables and wires are: poor gas mileage, engine misfires, engine light is on, and engine may vibrate. If your car needs new ignition cables and wires, call or visit Hailey Import Service in Greensboro, NC 27408. Here, you will have the wires and cables changed by a top-rated mechanic.

Spark PlugsA spark plug delivers electric current to the combustion chamber from the ignition system. Spark plugs that haven't been changed for a long time can cause ignition problems. At Hailey Import Service, we have automotive experts who will check and replace your spark plugs. For all your spark plug repair or replacement needs, call 336-286-1024 or visit Hailey Import Service today.

Oil, Lube, and FilterTo keep running smoothly, your car highly relies on oil, lube, and oil filters. Oil helps in lubricating, cooling, and cleaning the internal engine components. With time, motor oil becomes contaminated. Your car needs an oil, lube, and filter change every three months (or 3,000 miles). When it is time for a lube, oil, or filter change, take your vehicle to Hailey Import Service in Greensboro, NC 27408.

Check Engine LightNo one likes to see their car's "Check Engine" light come on. The light could mean a costly problem, like a bad catalytic converter, or it could be something minor, like a loose gas cap. At Hailey Import Service, we can pull the code and diagnose the problem for you. Give us a call at 336-286-1024 or stop by the shop for our expert assistance.

Vehicle Tips

According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.

Vehicle Tips

The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)

Vehicle Tips

Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.

Vehicle Tips

Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.

Vehicle Tips

Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.

Vehicle Tips

A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.

Vehicle Tips

Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.

Vehicle Tips

Vehicle Tips

Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.

Vehicle Tips

Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.

Vehicle Tips

Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.

Vehicle Tips

Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Reviews and comments from our satisfied customers

Haileys recently performed extensive service on our wagon. Devin and Keith were accommodating to my changing schedule, answered all of my questions, and completed the repairs when promised. The car runs better than it has in years. I would recommend Haileys and would use them again. Thanks guys.

I want to thank the guys at Hailey's for going above and beyond! I heard horror stories about the dealership so being a first time Volvo owner, I came up on this little gem! Devin is always friendly, personable and is genuinely concerned about your satisfaction!

-Chris S.

These guys are great at explaining what needs to be done. Their prices are reasonable and service is quick. I dropped off a car for headlamp issues and they were able to repair the wiring same day.

-John C.

Excellent Service. Devin and Keith are very knowledgeable. They are infomative and honest. This was my first visit and I will be coming back here vs. the dealer. They have a long history of Volvo knowledge. I would recommend to any Volvo owners. Thanks again guys.

-Mark S.

I've had work done there on a couple of occasions. They're very knowledgeable and easy to communicate with. I recommend them highly.
